Is this a good ballast setup?

I was wondering if would be a good ballast setup for beginners. 560lbs in the back (with 2 sacs), the stock 260lbs center ballast, and around 100lbs or so in the front? BTW the boat is a new 05 Centurion Elite V C4

That will be fine for any level rider.

Sounds like you are following the 60%-40% rule we talked about last week. Make sure you post a pic of the wake once you have this all setup b/c I would like to see how this all works out.

that might work, but from my experience with that boat, you will get a better wake if you load the boat nose heavy, more like 40% rear, 60% front, that is of course unless they changed that hull between '03 and '05. just make sure to be careful on the rollers with that weight set up. good luck bro.
